Brittney Griner Wants Marriage To Glory Johnson Annulled

The relationship between Phoenix Mercury star Brittney Griner and her wife of 28 days appears to be over. Griner has filed for an annulment, and is claiming that she has no biological connection to the baby and was forced to marry under duress.

Griner says the marriage to Johnson is based on “fraud and duress” — because Griner was “pressured into marriage under duress by [Johnson’s] threatening statements.”

Griner does not specify the nature of the threats. 

Griner also says there was fraud — but does not say why. It seems to be related to the pregnancy. 

As for the fetus, Griner does not say if she wants to have any type of parenting arrangement with the child. 

That last two months have carried a lot of ups and downs for the two. Back in April the two were arrested for a domestic violence incident. Then married May 8th, a pregnancy announcement a few days ago and now divorce.
I knew the timeline seemed a little tight for a planned pregnancy.
